vmod_xcounter enables custom counter in Varnish.
varnishstat -f XCNT.*
For example, count to the number of requests per domain.
vcl sample:
import xcounter; sub vcl_init { new example_net = xcounter.vsc(); } sub vcl_recv { if(req.http.host == "example.net"){ example_net.incr(1); } }
varnishstat output
$ sudo varnishstat -1 -f "XCNT.*" XCNT.reload_20181118_042545_24957.example_net.val 1 . xcounter
The counter is linked to the VCL.
Add new entry per new(reload) VCL.
- Description
- Get elapsed time.
Example
if(xcounter.elapsed() > 1s){...}
new xvsc = vsc( ENUM {bitmap, bytes, duration, integer} format=integer, ENUM {bitmap, counter, gauge} type=counter, ENUM {info, debug, diag} level=info, STRING oneliner="xcounter", BOOL hidecold=1, BOOL hidevclname=0, STRING groupname="" )
- Description
Create a counter.
Counter name format
XCNT.boot.group.object.val ("XCNT.%s.%s%s.val", vclname, groupname, objectname)
format
Counter format.type
Counter type.level
Counter level.oneliner
Counter description.hidecold
Hide counter, if state of vcl becomes cold.hidevclname
Do not include vclname(boot,reload... etc) in counter name, if set to true.groupname
Add group name.
Example
new xcnt = xcounter.vsc();
- Description
Increment vlaue.
Negative values are ignored
Example
xcnt.incr(1);
- Description
Decrement value.
Negative values are ignored.
Example
xcnt.decr(1);
- Description
- Set value.
Example
xcnt.set(1024);
- Description
- Get current value.
Example
if(xcnt.get() > 1024){...}

For other platforms you would use compilation.
The source tree is based on autotools to configure the building, and
does also have the necessary bits in place to do functional unit tests
using the varnishtest
tool.
Building requires the Varnish header files and uses pkg-config to find the necessary paths.
Usage:
./autogen.sh ./configure
If you have installed Varnish to a non-standard directory, call
autogen.sh
and configure
with PKG_CONFIG_PATH
pointing to
the appropriate path. For instance, when varnishd configure was called
with --prefix=$PREFIX
, use
export PKG_CONFIG_PATH=${PREFIX}/lib/pkgconfig export ACLOCAL_PATH=${PREFIX}/share/aclocal
The module will inherit its prefix from Varnish, unless you specify a
different --prefix
when running the configure
script for this
module.
Make targets:
- make - builds the vmod.
- make install - installs your vmod.
- make check - runs the unit tests in
src/tests/*.vtc
. - make distcheck - run check and prepare a tarball of the vmod.
If you build a dist tarball, you don't need any of the autotools or pkg-config. You can build the module simply by running:
./configure make
This function is beta.
Usage:
./sw_vrt.sh [VRT version] debuild -us -uc
vmod-packager allows you to create VMODs with various distribution and Varnish version combinations.

By default, the vmod configure
script installs the built vmod in the
directory relevant to the prefix. The vmod installation directory can be
overridden by passing the vmoddir
variable to make install

Incompatibilities with different Varnish Cache versions
Make sure you build this vmod against its correspondent Varnish Cache version. For instance, to build against Varnish Cache 4.1, this vmod must be built from branch 4.1.
Require GCC
This vmod using GCC Atomic builtins.
